Title: I need a favor from someone up North.
Post by: Asal Mor on December 18, 2014, 06:11:49 PM
Hey everyone in the six counties. I have a bit of a problem and need to get hold of an APS2 passport application form to apply for a passport for my daughter. I recently moved back to Ireland (it was a bit sudden as I had to get surgery) and my wife and daughter are still overseas. My wife sent me an APS 2 form(it seems to be impossible to get them in Ireland) from overseas but I gave it to my doctor to witness it and she filled it out wrong( she filled out the section to witness my wife's signature as well by mistake, and it would have been impossible for my wife to have even been in the country) so anyway , the end result is that I need a new APS 2 form. After a few phone calls and emails it seems these forms are unavailable here but are freely available in post offices up north. If I wait for my wife to post one from Asia, it will delay the process further and I don't know anyone up north so I thought I'd try on here.

If anyone could pick up one of these forms for me and post it on, I would be eternally grateful. I can PM you my address.

It should say APS 2 up in the top left corner. It's an application form for an Irish passport for someone who was born in another country. Sounds like you have a different form, cheers anyway though. Apparently they're available at post offices in the North.

Wildweasel APS 2 forms are for people applying for an Irish passport living in Northern Ireland or abroad.

Got that in the post today 5 Sams.  Was gonna PM ya, but wanted it to be a matter of public record that you are a legend. When my daughter's a bit older I'll explain and tell her to cheer for Down when they're not playing Galway. Thanks a million. I'll be able to get it sent off today and hopefully have herself and the missus home in the New Year.

Cheer for Galway and Down, she'll not be too hoarse, unless the Galway hurlers get going!

We've been infiltrated by a lot worse. Any Linden/ McCartan / Coulter blood would be especially welcome.
